Re: Pledge to be a BSA Beekeeping Mentor

I pledge that I will be a BSA beekeeping mentor if they reinstate the merit badge. I also will offer the support of the Union, Oregon area in a myriad of ways including mentoring, possible supply of equipment, site visits, and other activities to support our local Boy Scout troops.

I have served as merit badge counselor, asst. scoutmaster, scoutmaster, Varsity team leader, etc. and currently serve as C.O.R. of Troop 528 in Union, OR.

Re: Pledge to be a BSA Beekeeping Mentor

Barry: I'd be willing to help the Boy Scouts with this badge - have them visit our school social group (WUMS/HS) on Beesource.com if they would like to see some of what we're doing , and it's the same age group. I'm an Eagle Scout too (quite a while ago), so it's time to give back.
I'll be contacting the Boy Scouts using the links provided.

Re: Pledge to be a BSA Beekeeping Mentor

I am an Asst Scoutmaster and will be a beekeeping mentor and hope to be able to offer an Observation Hive for Summer Camp at Camp Powhatan's Nature Center. ( Camp Powhatan is largest District Scout Camp in USA.)
